  • splitter (None or AbstractSplitterPartitioner) – The splitter object needed for this vertex. Leave as None to delegate the choice of splitter to the selector.

Parameters:
property atoms_shape

The “shape” of the atoms in the vertex i.e. how the atoms are split between the dimensions of the vertex. By default everything is 1-dimensional, so the value will be a 1-tuple but can be overridden by a vertex that supports multiple dimensions.

If this doesn’t return None, get_fixed_key_and_mask() must also not return None, and the keys returned here must align with those such that for each key:mask returned here, key & app_mask == app_key. It is OK for this to return None and get_fixed_key_and_mask() to return non-None if and only if there is only one machine vertex.
